Chapter 1089: Da Shang Coins

reath】!" The black-clad card wielder in mid-air threw out cards one after another.Theworsening Sindragosa's form wasn't visible from head to toe, but rather a "mouth" opened up randomly from anywhere...……

With the human race's military strength, it is necessary to immediately engage in a full-scale hot war with the virtual spirit race. It remains to be seen who will die in this battle.

But the Xu Ling clan, with their heavy reliance on human's old-world tabletop rules, would likely fall short in a strategic card game against humans.

The Xu Ling clan believes they have developed for countless years and, in terms of scheming, can rival the human race.

Relying on its immense power, it blockaded humanity and the Rock Nation, launching a preemptive strike with overwhelming force.

According to the analysis of Xirui Intelligence, after becoming a vassal state of the Rock Kingdom, the next step for the Human Race should be to independently develop their own transportation capabilities.

Then it began to participate in the logistics competition, vying for market share.

Gradually open up the transportation route from the Human Tribe Triangle District to Iwakuni.

Even completing this process would take at least hundreds of rounds under the Spirit Race's blockade.

We are still unable to compete with the Virtual Spirits in the short term.

After all, in the physical goods industry, the Virtual Clan has cultivated for many years and its scale is far beyond what the Rock Clan can compare to.

The Wraith Clan had nearly a century to prepare, to thoroughly crush this new pair of rivals.

But their idea this time was completely wrong.

The Human race did not compete against them on their turf.

Lu Cheng went around the strengths of the Xulings, the first card he played...

He almost hit a member of the Illusory Race in the thigh.

This card is called --【Financial Strategy】!

……

Lu Cheng pondered deeply, considering how to compete with the Xuliang tribe discreetly without drawing attention.

Whose trucking capacity is more efficient

Through information gathering, Lu Cheng believes that Baiyu Jing Tian Ting's operations are more advantageous.

But no matter how you say it, there are only two. The scale is far less than the Illusory Spirit race.

To layout the transportation industry is a century-long grand undertaking.

They all say you hit yours, and I hit mine.

It's really not necessary to forcefully touch on the opponent's strengths...

Lu Cheng decided to take a different approach and dig into the corner wall of the Xu Ling clan.

……

Currency, a card playing rule unique to humans.

Originating from the ancient Shang dynasty, it has been in use until today.

It's not uncommon on the Human Continent.

Almost all human nations have coinage, but not the Alliance.

Currently, all tribes are still under the Merchant Rules of Ka'ika.

Even foreign card masters can't understand what "fees" are.

The Third Dynasty simply did not apply monetary rules, so they naturally couldn't understand.

The trading rules brought them immense convenience, they didn't understand at all, monetary maneuvering was a more advanced way of playing the game.

It takes more computational power for Kai to exchange.

If currency is considered as a general equivalent, then the rule of costs will be established.

A card master only needs to pay the "fee" – this light and airy, even virtual concept – to complete a play or exchange.

There's no need to trade a one-star 【cotton】 for another one-star 【water】 anymore.

It is really difficult to calculate the transaction costs saved in the middle.

Lu Cheng had no need to lay out for a hundred years, using his own resources to compete with the vast industry of the Virtual Spirit Clan...

Just introduce such a card-playing rule, and then firmly grasp the power of minting coins, the existing huge and bloated logistics will collapse on its own...

In the new monetary trade system, those who control the right to mint currency will have a significant advantage.

……

Getting the league to accept new card rules is tough.

But Lu Cheng knew that monetary strategy was a form of progress for every card master, benefiting most forces.

Promoting a set of rules in civilizations with different languages, cultures, and forms is difficult, unless it offers benefits.

As long as there is profit to be made, this rule will spread organically....

The triangular area is bordered only by the nation of Rock.

Human refugees arrived here gradually over a period of ten years.

These frail Alliance species barely survive on the planet of Rock Nation.

The Rock King allowed them to build what was called a "stone shelter" using inert rocks.

Among the many nomadic tribes, the Rock Clan actually enjoys humans stepping on their bodies (the earth).

Because humans are intelligent, especially in their descriptions of a vast fringe world race.

Sea of Singers…

It is rumored that the Edge World is an endless ocean ruled by Queen Leviathan, the ruler of boundless seas.

The schools of fish, led by the queen, conquered countless kingdoms...

Song Shang spoke vaguely about the Ocean Queen, in this story there are raging waves, vast oceans and endless whale ridges.

Few people from other tribes tell stories.

The dreary people of Yanguo (whom the Song called "stone men," though they lacked a concept of self, an "I," and thus no individual identity) naturally welcomed the human race, a species capable of logical thought and storytelling.

This is extremely helpful in stimulating their limited active ingredients.

However, when humans talk about the boundless singing ocean and exchanging goods for shells, they don't use barter.

Even if "the earth" doesn't have a nose, it would find this appalling.

With worthless 【shells】, you can exchange for clean water, food active ingredients...

... even drive a pod of orcas ...

It's just impossible.

The Song people, however, swore up and down that they were telling the truth. They pounded their earth-like heads and promised that what they said was true.

According to the Song people, the human race on the edge world was under the rule of Queen Whale of Xu Yu.

The dragon boat is considered the queen's envoy, led by a military governor, who sails far across the central sea.

The Avatar's Spirit appears on the Dragon Boat every ten rounds. When it does, you can use coins to exchange for your desired items.

The earth did not take it to heart.

This massive stone giant lacks my concept, so it can be considered the collective will of all the stone giants in the Stone County.

This indicates that no one on the planet believes this claim.

The Song people did not mind this and, in order to thank the Alliance Rock tribe for their shelter, they even presented the earth with some [shells]. After that, they left.

After the human race left, the land fell silent once more.

There are no intelligent species living on it. Telling stories and listening to them, it's truly a bit boring.

However, it doesn't matter, its activity is not sufficient for thinking.

Just as humans need food for energy, the Rock Clan needs active matter.

How can we obtain energy

During normal times, they can use constant labor to mine rocks and trade them with the Ethereal Ones for living energy.

This is due to its lack of intelligence; it's the only way it can obtain energy.

Though constantly working, it's barely enough.

But within ten years, the Xu Ling Clan suspended trading ore. As to why, even Earth didn't understand.

The Wraith clan withdrew a large number of shuttles, leaving many Rock clans in an energy crisis.

Stop thinking about it, go to sleep.

The earth wants to activate the nature of sloth.

But the "little stone" around me, a newly born active rock, might not survive sleep.

What should I do

The earth once again fell into thought.

Until options appear.

Gacha options: "Special Envoy of the Eastern Queen".

The emissary from beyond the realm has arrived at the League card, Dragon Boat. You can pay in coins during your previous turn to draw extra cards.

Otherwise...

Want to shout something out to Triangle area

The earth gathers spiritual power.

Next second.

"Boom!"

Planetary seismic waves are fanning out from the triangle area.

……

Northern Song Dynasty, Dragon Boat Festival.

The jiedushi's mind moved.

You have a new order!

Lu Cheng immediately switched to a form of spiritual energy that could be understood.

"I'm hungry, let's order some food!" could only carry one turn's worth of supplies is now different.Most importantly, swift movement.Lu Cheng's ace is the mobile corps Ka, known for its swift attacks.The Long Wall Forbidden Army was the...
